Many phases of design projects are done in groups. Communication in these groups is
naturally supported through a variety of gestures. We catalog four types of gestures that …

This paper presents computational models of creative designing. It commences with
describing notions of creative designing within individuals, groups and then societies. In …

Computational co-creative systems in design allow users to collaborate with an AI partner on
open-ended creative tasks in the design process. Co-creative systems can enhance design …

We propose a computational model for creative design based on collaborative interactive
genetic algorithms, and present an implementation for evolving creative floorplans and …

Online document collaboration tools, such as Google Docs, offer designers different ways of
communicating and working collaboratively compared to face-to-face interaction. In this …

Advances in innovation processes are critically important as economic and business
